According to Serbian tennis player Filip Krajinovic, it is not surprising that world number 1 Novak Djokovic has prolonged career success like Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. Because, although Djokovic likes to sleep, he is still one of the most disciplined athletes and always brings his own food to ensure strict compliance with his diet. Throughout Djokovic’s career, the world No. 1 tennis player has paid extremely close attention to diet and exercise.
All of that is now paying off handsomely when, at the age of 36, Djokovic is still winning the Grand Slam and is still considered the best player in tennis. Krajinovic – also one of the top Serbian tennis players over the past decade – knows Djokovic well because he had the opportunity to interact with the 24-time Grand Slam champion and observe his habits.
” He’s very disciplined… Novak has his own special food, when we’re with the national team. Some of it he eats like the rest of us, but if that’s what If it suits him that day, he will take food for everyone. But he usually brings his own luggage, including what is prepared for him as well as what he prepare yourself ,” Krajinovic revealed.
According to Krajinovic, Djokovic has a very dense daily schedule. However, Djokovic always finds a way to get things done. Considering Djokovic considers every single detail, Krajinovic admitted he wouldn’t be surprised at all if the world No. 1 could play until he’s 40 years old. ” What are his habits? Novak is not a morning person, he likes to sleep. His days are very long, he has a lot of obligations during the day, he feels tired, but he is such a professional that he knows what to do and how to treat people.
He finds time for everything. I often ask him how to make a daily plan to do things and Novak says how to do it. What a miracle, what can I say! I just know that he is very motivated and wants to keep winning. He was very excited about the victory. I believe he continues to show that he is the most mature and dominant and believes in what he is doing. I don’t know where his limits are. I swear. If you asked me, I don’t know… If you told me he would play until he was 40, I would say he would. He’s super cool! ”, Krajinovic said.
